Chapter 214: The Twist and Turns
Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress
âWoot woot...â
The following afternoon, Han Moze whistled a clear, quick, and pleasant tune with his hands coolly clasped behind him as he walked.
Liu Rushuang couldnât help but burst into laughter.
With a joyous smile upon Han Mozeâs face, he walked up to embrace Liu Rushuang and plant a kiss on her face.
âShuangâer, youâre really beautiful,â he sighed with a deep and resounding voice.
On hearing this, Liu Rushuangâs heart fluttered and her mouth curved into a wide smile. Then, she looked up at Han Moze.
âZe, your whistling sounds so good!â
âOf course! I am the best at whistling, nobody dares claim they are better than I am. After hearing a soldier whistle in the barracks, I thought Iâd give it a try,â explained Han Moze with a proud look on his face when talking about his past.
âHaha...â Liu Rushuang couldnât help but be infatuated with Han Moze. She really liked this gentle side of Ze.
âAre you unbearably crazy over me now?â Han Moze said casually.
âHaha...â Liu Rushuang couldnât help but hug her stomach in laughter.
Han Moze raised Liu Rushuangâs chin and smiled. âWife, if you continue to smile like that, Iâm going to kiss you,â he said with an evil smile.
Liu Rushuang immediately pouted, then pinched Han Mozeâs handsome face. âZe, youâve truly defeated me.â
Han Moze softly pecked Liu Rushuangâs forehead. âIâm the one whoâs defeated by you. For you, Iâm even willing to go through thick and thin,â he said in an affectionate voice.
All of a sudden, their eyes met and the Dark Moon Palace was filled with warmth.
As the pair of them gazed into each otherâs eyes, their lips curled into perfectly sweet smiles.
Their connection lasted a long time and it felt like time had stopped at that very moment.
âShuangâer, do you still remember how we first met?â Han Moze said softly.
Liu Rushuang wore a faint smile. âHow could I forget? You surprisingly strangled my neck and threatened me at the time. You were truly horrid.â
âThatâs because Iâve always had everything Iâve ever wanted since I was young so naturally, I thought you should be mine because I wanted you,â Han Moze said with a plain smile.
âWhat kind of logic is that? I never agreed to it!â Liu Rushuang cried with a dissatisfied pout.
âThereafter, I threatened you to marry me because you disobeyed me and often insulted me, so I would often get violent with you. At the time, I simply wanted to subdue you and didnât care about your feelings. Shuangâer, are you still mad at me?â Han Moze asked.
Liu Rushuang forcefully hit Han Moze. âWhat do you think? You giant douchebag! You donât understand how to love someone. You got mad at me after I only cursed you a few times.â
Han Moze pinched Liu Rushuangâs cheeks. âYouâre just too stubborn and you werenât willing to give in, not even once,â he said helplessly.
âLike you arenât the same?â Liu Rushuang retorted with a pout.â
Han Moze thought about what happened after and smiled. âThen, I designed you a bridal dress and we got married. At first, I thought we could stay together forever, but the Empress Dowager crippled Qingâer. Back then, you went to the Drunken Cloud Pavilion and the days spent without you were so hard to bear that I played the flute for you.â
âHmph! You dare bring that up? I havenât even dealt with you for lying to me!â Liu Rushuang got a little angry at the thought of how Han Moze had pretended to be sick.
âThen, you wanted to leave me again. I had no choice but to use Qingâer to threaten you to stay. Then after that, you really did run away, but you were struck by my poison. Haha! You little minx! You canât escape my clutches and Iâd never let you run away,â Han Moze said with a soft smile.
Tinges of anger enveloped Liu Rushuangâs eyes at the very thought of what happened. âYou really are an evil douchebag. It was all your fault that I almost drowned to death after that!â
